  • 16 banks to lower loan interests amid Covid-19

    16 banks to lower loan interests amid Covid-19

    Sixteen commercial banks have agreed to reduce interests on existing loans of Covid-hit businesses from now until the end of the year.

    The banks include Vietcombank, Vietinbank, BIDV, Agribank, Techcombank, MB, VPBank, TPBank and Sacombank.

    Lowering interests is difficult, but this is the time when banks need to share the burden with businesses, said Nguyen Quoc Hung, general secretary of Vietnam Banks Association, at a meeting Monday.

    Agribank is committed to lowering its interests by one percentage point on average, while MB will do so for at least one percentage point.

    Sacombank will seek shareholder permission as lowering the interest by one percentage point is equivalent to 40 percent of its profit target for the year. Some other banks will do the same.

    But not all businesses will be eligible for the reduction. Bank leaders said they would focus on companies truly hurt by the pandemic

    “Real estate companies with large profits, export firms or individuals borrowing money to buy cars should not be eligible for the reduction,” said Deputy Director of Techcombank Pham Quang Thang.

    He added companies that are essential to the economy with a large workforce should be eligible.

    The bank said a surge in net interest income and a cut in operational expenses has boosted its Q1 performance.

    It said that its pre-tax profit growth was average compared to other lenders’ growth rates of 50 percent or even over 100 percent during the same period.

    For example, the increase in Q1 pre-tax profit was 135 and 110 percent respectively for the state-owned VietinBank and Military Commercial Bank (MBBank). Private lender ACB, meanwhile, saw a 61 percent increase in its Q1 pre-tax profit.

    TPBank’s Q1 revenue was up 15.2 percent year-on-year to VND2.78 trillion.

    By March end, both its outstanding loans and capital mobilization increased 4 percent to VND124.3 trillion and VND120 trillion, respectively. Non-performing loans were at 1.19 percent.

    The bank has set a target of VND5.5 trillion in pre-tax profit for 2021, a year-on-year increase of 25 percent.
